Definitions
- IBV Avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus
- Corona viridae Order Nidovirales.
- Infectious bronchitis virus principally infects the upper respiratory epithelium of chickens, causing a respiratory disease, commonly complicated by secondary bacterial pathogens (Cook et al 2012. Avian Pathol. 41 :239-250).
- Some IBV strains additionally affect the renal tubuli, oviduct and parts of the gastrointestinal tract, leading to pathological lesions and clinical symptoms in these organ systems.
- the virus has a worldwide presence in both commercial and backyard chicken. Due to its high genomic variability IBV is discriminated in a wide variety of geno-, sero- and protectotypes. IBV is currently regarded as one of the economically most relevant viral pathogens in the poultry industry.
- Infectious bronchitis virus is an enveloped virus with a positive sense single- stranded RNA genome of 27.6 kb (Cavanagh 2007. Vet. Res. 38:281-297).
- the first two-third of the viral genome comprises large coding region (also designated as gene 1), divided into two open reading frames la and lb, which encode for 15 nonstructural proteins involved in RNA replication, editing, and transcription.
- the last one-third of the viral genome codes for structural proteins: the spike protein (S, encoded by gene 2), the envelope protein (E, encoded by gene 3c),the membrane protein (M, encoded by gene 4), and the nucleocapsid protein (N, encoded by gene 6).
- Proteins S, E and M are part of the viral envelope while protein N forms along with the viral RNA the ribonucleoprotein core.
- the spike protein is a dimeric or trimeric transmembrane protein, which is proteolytically cleaved into two subunits, SI and S2.
- the heavily glycosylated SI domain forms the 'head' of the spike protein and contains the receptor binding domain that interacts with 2,3-linked sialic acids on the host cell surface (Promkuntod et al 2014. Virology. 448:26-32).
- the S2 domain contains the remaining part of the ectodomain (the 'stalk'), the transmembrane domain and the cytoplasmatic located endodomain.
- the coronavirus spike protein principally determines host species tropism (Kuo et al 2000. J. Virol. 74: 1393-1406).
- Gene 3 is functionally tricistronic, encoding three proteins, 3a, 3b, and 3c. The latter being the structural E protein of IBV.
- Gene 5 is functionally bicistronic and encodes two proteins, 5a and 5b (Britton et al 2006; Adv Exp Med Biol.;581 :363-8).
- the accessory IBV proteins 3a and 3b were recently found to induce a delayed activation of the type I interferon response in vitro, with protein 3a additionally being involved in resistance of IBV to the cellular antiviral state induced by I FN (Kint et al 2015: J.Virol.
- Accessory protein 5b contributes to host shut off, hereby amongst others inhibiting the translation of type I IFN (Kint, PhD thesis 2015).

- the immunogenic composition comprising an IBV (infectious bronchitis virus) wherein the ORF 3 a and ORF 3b and the ORF 5a and ORF 5b are inactivated has been proven to be safe and efficacious.
- the Prior Art IBV vaccines have several disadvantages. Inactivated vaccines in general only give a humoral immune response (but limited cellular immune response) and booster vaccinations are in general necessary when inactivated IBV vaccines are used. For that reason modified live IBV vaccines (inducing humoral and cellular immune response) in general would be the preferred choice. However, modified live IBV vaccines developed so far have different drawbacks.
- the Beaudette IBV strain (a non-pathogenic cell-culture adapted IBV strain) is too attenuated. Other strains such as H52 may not be sufficiently attenuated resulting in damage of the respiratory tract after vaccination.
- modified live IBV vaccines were attenuated by serial passaging in embryonated eggs, which is laborious and time-consuming. In addition, this type of attenuation is random and the outcome is rather unpredictable. There is a risk of reversion to virulence while passaged in chickens. Thus, there is a need for new recombinant modified live IBV vaccines being safe and efficacious.
- Manservigi et al 2010 (Open Virol J. 2010; 4: 123-156) raised concerns that to many deletions in the genome of an herpes simplex virus 1 might result in an over attenuation which negate its value.
- immunogenic composition refers to a composition that comprises at least one antigen, which elicits an immunological response in the host to which the immunogenic composition is administered.

- sequence identity refers to a relationship between two or more polypeptide sequences or two or more polynucleotide sequences, namely a reference sequence and a given sequence to be compared with the reference sequence. Sequence identity is determined by comparing the given sequence to the reference sequence after the sequences have been optimally aligned to produce the highest degree of sequence similarity, as determined by the match between strings of such sequences. Upon such alignment, sequence identity is ascertained on a position-by-position basis, e.g., the sequences are "identical” at a particular position if at that position, the nucleotides or amino acid residues are identical.
- Sequence identity can be readily calculated by known methods, including but not limited to, those described in Computational Molecular Biology, Lesk, A. N., ed., Oxford University Press, New York (1988), Biocomputing: Informatics and Genome Projects, Smith, D.W., ed., Academic Press, New York (1993); Computer Analysis of Sequence Data, Part I, Griffin, A.M., and Griffin, H. G., eds., Humana Press, New Jersey (1994); Sequence Analysis in Molecular Biology, von Heinge, G., Academic Press (1987); Sequence Analysis Primer, Gribskov, M.
